June was a big month in the calendar of the village, with the Jubilee celebrations and the visit of the Olympic Torch shortly afterwards. Inside you will find photos of the Edwinstowe “Jubilee Picnic” and the Edwinstowe Angels’ charity walk. There were still plenty of people who were determined not to be put off by the rain and came out to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee. Also inside, are pictures of the day the Olympic Torch came to Edwinstowe. People turned out in their thousands to welcome the Torch to “Robin Hood’s village”. It was one of those once in a lifetime days when people could say, “I was there.” Britain’s fickle weather didn’t smile kindly names, including Goffs, Benhams and Ococo had stalls on the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations- and Scott from Treet House did a hog roast for the Angels. organising any outdoor event in this country is a Some of Edwinstowe’s top talent performed throughout matter of chance.

  • Geographies of Belonging in the Nottinghamshire Coalfield: Affect, Temporality and Deindustrialisation
    GEOGRAPHIES OF BELONGING IN THE NOTTINGHAMSHIRE COALFIELD: AFFECT, TEMPORALITY AND DEINDUSTRIALISATION Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Jay Emery School of Geography, Geology and the Environment University of Leicester December 2018 Abstract This thesis investigates the affective-temporal processes of belonging among mining families in the Nottinghamshire coalfield, examining how affective histories and memories of deindustrialisation and the coal industry mediate belongings. Literatures on the post- industrial working-class have noted how processes of deindustrialisation and industrial ruination have dismantled previous formations of belonging based around work, community and place. Research has also highlighted ways that the past emerges and surfaces in the present to unsettle and disrupt contemporary belongings. Analysis prescribed around specific methods belies the relationalities of discursive, embodied and sensorial textualities and distorts from how the past in the present is lived. Further, fundamental to understanding and recognising the past in the present is an attentive reading of those pasts from an historical perspective. Relatedly, social scientists have identified how affective class histories transfer intergenerationally and dispose working-class bodies to industrial forms of life that no longer exist. I suggest that the relationalities between belonging and memory, lived experience and intergenerational transferences need to be understood as one affective-temporal process. Drawing on weak theory, Anderson’s ‘analytics of affect’ and the genealogical method, I propose a multi-modal methodology emphasising attunement to the embodied, reflexive and more-than-representational modes that the past emerges, as well as a nuanced tracing of place pasts. Through this methodological and analytical framework, I conceive the Nottinghamshire coalfield as a set of temporal and affective enfolded blendings conditioning the capacities of residents to belong and resist alienation.

  • Nottinghamshire Area Profile
    Nottinghamshire area profile Geography Nottinghamshire is a county covering 805 square miles (2,085 sq. km). There are three distinct areas: the relatively affluent suburbs surrounding the City of Nottingham; the towns and villages in the north-west which grew out of the textile and coal industries; and the rural areas to the east and south characterised by prosperous market towns and villages in the Trent Valley. Towns and villages in the north and west that were the heartland of heavy industry now offer opportunities for servicing and manufacturing sector industries, with a major concentration of logistics and distribution companies on the M1 and A1 corridors. Rural communities to the east and south, outside of the main market towns, act largely as commuter belt for conurbations including Nottingham, Lincoln, Leicester and London. These also have significant agricultural economies with market towns such as Newark and Retford offering more diverse opportunities. Industrial Heritage Its recent past is dominated by traditional heavy industries which supported entire communities and multiple generations followed by their collapse during the early 1990s. Coal, textile and clothing industries all declined with the last coalmine in the County closing in 2015. Small businesses and start-ups across a range of sectors have gradually replaced these traditional industries. These changes had a very serious impact on some communities however overall the county recovered well as new industries came to the area, existing businesses expanded, and employment grew. Demographic and socio-economic change The 2017 mid-year population estimates show there are currently 817,851 people living in Nottinghamshire with the population set to increase by 62,700 over the next 15 years due to net migration and increased life expectancy.

The Warsop Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group was established with the aim of preparing a Plan that will deliver the long term goals of a balanced and vibrant neighbourhood. Since becoming established, we have held many public meetings, both general open events and specific discussions with groups of school children and older people; for example, it held online and paper consultations to seek the views of local residents and other stakeholders, groups and businesses who share an interest in Warsop. In preparing this Neighbourhood Plan we have listened very carefully to all the feedback received through all these consultations and have worked hard to ensure that the Plan incorporates and reflects the views of the community.

It’s mixed tarmac and footpaths. Before you go Look in Google for information on Clumber Park, Hardwick village and the Duke of New- castle. Binoculars are worth taking.
